Kentucky woman
She shines with her own kind of light
She'd look at you once
And a day that's all wrong looks all right
And I love her
God knows, I love her

Kentucky woman
If she get to know you
She goin' to own you
Kentucky woman

Well, she ain't the kind
Makes heads turn at the drop of her name
But something inside
That she's got turn you on just the same
And she loves me
God knows, she loves me

Kentucky woman
If she get to know you
She goin' to own you
Kentucky woman

I don't want much
The good Lord's earth beneath my feet
A gentle touch from that one girl
And life is sweet and good
Ain't no doubt
I'm talkin' about

Kentucky woman
If she get to know you
She goin' to own you
Kentucky woman

I don't want much
The good Lord's earth beneath my feet
A gentle touch from that one girl
And life is sweet and good
Ain't no doubt
I'm talkin' about

Kentucky woman
If she get to know you
She goin' to own you
Kentucky woman
Kentucky woman
Kentucky woman

    She sounds like someone's mother who was exactly that. :)

    "If she get to know you She goin' to own you"

    now that's an assertive southern girl.... I like it

    Try listening to the Deep Purple version... kind of earthier in an 'English lads getting plastered in the pub' way.
